Liverpool are set to earn an extra £300,000 from Manchester City thanks to a clause included in the Raheem Sterling deal that was agreed last summer.

According to the Telegraph, Manchester City and the Liverpool agreed several clauses as part of the England winger’s £49million across the north-west last summer.

One of which was based on City’s progression in the Champions League. By reaching the semi-finals of the competition, the Citizens will be forced to part with an extra £300,000, which in turn could rise again if they go on to win the competition outright in Sterling’s time with them.

Sterling is currently out of action with a groin injury that he sustained during the Blues’ Manchester derby defeat last month but is reported to be way ahead in his recovery and would be able to play in the final if they make it and the Euros for England.

The 21-year-old, who has had a mixed season at the Etihad pushed for a move away from Liverpool at the prospect of being offered regular Champions League.

Liverpool managed to secure a £44million fee up front for the winger with an extra £5million in performance related bonuses that the Reds are fully confident of eventually receive the entire fee for their former player.
